This new online workshop will have you looking at stamps in a whole new way!

• Unlock Fresh Creative Possibilities: Discover how stamps can serve as “jigsaw pieces” for storytelling, helping you weave narratives into your art rather than just creating isolated images.
• Refresh Underused Supplies: Give those long-neglected stamps the spotlight they deserve. You’ll learn how to make the most of the tools you already own, breathing new life into old favorites and minimizing waste.
• Confidence in Experimentation: This workshop encourages playful exploration rather than perfection. By using stamps as a shortcut for initial outlines, you’ll worry less about getting every detail “right” and focus more on creative expression.
• Faster Artistic Results: Stamps jumpstart the drawing phase, allowing you to spend more time on the fun parts of your process—shading, coloring, and story development—so you see satisfying results sooner.
• Build Narrative Depth: Move beyond decorative stamping into creating entire scenes and stories. The techniques taught will help you craft more meaningful and dynamic artwork that truly engages viewers.
• A Blend of Techniques and Inspiration: Expect both creativity-led exploration and structured lessons. You’ll not only learn stamping methods but also how to combine images, reverse them for new compositions, and shape cohesive visual narratives.
• Guided by an Experienced Artist: You’ll have the chance to learn from someone who uses these techniques professionally and innovatively, especially with unique supplies like INKvincible inks and Jane D stamps, ensuring you gain insider tips and best practices.
• Develop a Distinctive Artistic Voice: By harnessing stamps as the starting point of your creative process, you’ll refine your style and storytelling approach—an invaluable skill for anyone aiming to stand out in their art journey.
• Suitable for All Skill Levels: Whether you’re a stamping novice or a seasoned mixed-media artist, the workshop’s approach to experimentation and playfulness makes it accessible and beneficial for everyone.
• Ongoing Artistic Growth: Beyond the individual projects you’ll complete, the mindset and methods shared will continue to inspire new ideas, helping you evolve long after the workshop ends.
